shmem_insert_pages() currently loops over the array of pages passed
to it and calls shmem_add_to_page_cache() for each one. Prepare
for adding pages to the pagecache in bulk by adding and using a
shmem_add_pages_to_cache() call.  For now it just iterates over
an array and adds pages individually, but improvements in performance
when multiple threads are adding to the same pagecache are achieved
by calling a new shmem_add_to_page_cache_fast() function that does
not check for conflicts and drops the xarray lock before updating stats.
